Problems solved by technology

However, the ASCC cannot set logical resources necessary for user applications to provide a service, which limits the applicability of the user applications.
In other words, because the ASCC is not capable of setting of a network and a storage and release of the setting upon adding or reducing a server, there is a limit in user applications that can be applied to provide a service.

Embodiment Construction

[0061]Exemplary embodiments of the present invention are explained in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0062]FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram for explaining a concept of application provisioning according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the application provisioning refers to automatically adjusting the number of servers according to a load of a task.

[0063]In other words, the application provisioning refers to providing a maximum threshold and a minimum threshold for a QoS metric corresponding to a load of a task, when a value of the QoS metric exceeds the maximum threshold, automatically increasing the number of servers assigned to an application for carrying out the task, and, when a value of the QoS metric falls below the minimum threshold, automatically decreasing the number of servers assigned to a user application for carrying out the task.

[0064]In the conventional ASCC, simple addition or deletion of a server is also performe...

Abstract

A resource coordinator manager automatically sets a LAN and a SAN for a server to be add according to an increase in load. An ASCC satellite executes a boot script to boot up a user application on the server. The ASCC satellite executes a stop script to stop a user application executed on a server to be returned to a server pool according to a decrease in load. The resource coordinator manager automatically releases a LAN and a SAN set for the server to be returned.

Description

[0001]This application is a Continuation of International Application Serial No. PCT / JP2005 / 024073, filed Dec. 28, 2005.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to a technology for managing a plurality of servers that execute the same user applications to provide a service.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]Software, Adaptive Service Control Center (ASCC), (registered trademark) has been developed for autonomously adjusting a performance of an information processing system according to service load. Reference may be had to, for example, “Adaptive Services Control Center ASCC”, [retrieved on Dec. 6, 2005], Internet <URL: http: / / www.fujitsu-siemens.com / products / software / management / quality_of_service / ascc.html>). The ASCC automatically increases or decreases, according to service load, the number of servers that execute user applications for providing the service to thereby maintain the service level even when the loa...
